About This Part
Door boot gasket for Bosch front-load washers — the rubber ring that seals the drum opening against the door glass. When the boot perishes, splits or grows permanent mould, you’ll see water on the laundry floor mid-cycle, smell musty washing, or find black marks on clean loads. A new seal restores the watertight ring and stops the damage spreading to floors and cabinets.
This is the seal Bosch sold as 00680768 and renumbered 00772658 — Bosch’s service channel now lists it as 20007273 at $89.36 (checked August 2026). Ours is $54.85.
Replacing it is a realistic DIY job for most owners: roughly 45–60 unhurried minutes with basic hand tools, no service callout needed. Power off, ease off the outer retaining spring and the inner clamp, seat the new boot with its locating mark at the top, and work the springs back in evenly.

How do I replace this door seal?
Disconnect power before beginning. Remove the old part, noting its orientation and any wiring connections. Fit the new part in the same position, reconnect any wiring, and test the appliance.
Is this the same seal as Bosch 00680768 or 20007273?
Yes. Bosch originally sold this boot gasket as 00680768, renumbered it 00772658, and its current Bosch service number is 20007273 — the same seal through the whole chain. (00682843 is a different, larger Avantixx door gasket — not this part.)
